Been doing some thinking about possible regular Friday features during the off-season. Since that rat bastard Benny has the best blogging gig in the biz with his great - but only 13 week - KNOW YOUR FOE posts, that leaves me with 49 other *&^% Fridays to fill.

Yeah, I know we have Beer Bong Fridays. But unless it's something good (like the one below), I don't want to keep going to that well (or keg) every week. Let's face it, there are only so many amusing ways one can watch somebody jam a funnel down their throat and attempt to rapidly consume alcohol.

Thus, in an effort to not want to force it as I search in vain for something college football-related in the dog days of May and keep things interesting (for you and me), I've decided to make Fridays "pot luck" here on the MZone. The only criteria for these posts is that they're funny.

Would love to get your input on such a segment. Good idea? Bad idea? Too far afield? And please know, if there is any good college football news, it'll still go up on Fridays. This is just an idea to keep things fresh as we enter the CFB Dead Zone. Then again, maybe it's too "off message" to quote from the political season.

Anyhoo, to kick PLF off, I pass on two things that had me laughing recently: An ad on Craigslist from some guy selling cinder blocks and a little musical mash-up featuring SpongeBob SquarePants.

the spongebob is a little old, however, i heard that Barwis will be implementing the all newWill Jones Turbo Cardio Workout this season, not only will it keep cardio going to their legs, but the will have to beat the bitches off with a stick.

Great segment. Perhaps a few more themes would keep the fan contributions rolling in:

Mondays: "Munday Morning Coach" - coaching (head/assist/etc) jobs in NCAA or Pros (or wherever else) we'd like to have or avoid at all costs.

Wednesdays: "If Your Candidate Called the Plays" - a guess at how presidential candidates would've handled things differently had they been holding the clip-board during some of our most memorable college football moments.

Thursdays: "Know Your Bro" - a quick look at one Michigan player, his prospects for the season, and key matchups he'll face in the BigTen.

He really needs to give more information about the sexual combatibility of the individual blocks. I mean, they look sexy and all, but what if the block I get turns out to be gay? Is there a return policy for this?

i forget who originally suggested it, but sizing up the relative strengths/weaknesses of other conferences would be just the sort of thing to spark debate among many people between now and the start of football season.

Hey, 3 in a row! The basketball boys tagged OSU! OSU is a possible tourney team. You can really see the progress in this years team. This team couldn't beat anyone with a pulse at the start and now they have 3 in a row and none of them were lucky or anything but hard work and effort.

You know, all it takes is 4 wins in the B10 tourney... Yeah, yeah, dream on, I know. Still, the future looks better.
